Looks like there's a translation out there already, but what the heck, I did it so. :P Since I was personally a member of a Wind Orchestra club in Japan too, I'm excited about the series. There's some mentions of competitions and whatnot, so if you think more information is sufficient just mention it and I'll probably be able to answer.
I'd love it if someone would give it a glance and proofread it, thanks. I'm pretty sure about the accuracy but I think there might be a few grammar errors and other tidbits.
You can use them for scanlations, only if you ask me first. First come first serve. ;)

P1 Katsura: -So
Katsura: The government's recent moves...
?: Hey, did you see yesterday's 'Summer Sonata'? (*Summer Sonata: Obvious reference of 'Winter Sonata', a korean drama aired in Japan that became extremely famous between the Japanese.)
Katsura: The government's
?: Really is amusing.
Katsura: recent
?: The main character's smile is just amazing.
?: Lend me the video next time.
Katsura: The
Katsura: re
Katsura: That's enough!!
Katsura: This is a place to set the world to rights!! It is not a sewing circle!!!
P2 Katsura: Anyway, what is this!? This 'Summer Sonata'.
?: I-I'm sorry. It's, um, this popular NH star TV drama...
Katsura: Being manipulated by foreign media! And you call yourselves a supporter!?
Katsura: Fine!! I'm going home!
?: Wait Katsura-san!!
?: We're sorry Katsura-san!!
?: Katsura-saaaaaaaaan!!
Katsura: Excuse me.
Katsura: Is the video of 'Summer Sonata' released already?
P3 Shop: There's the first two volumes
Katsura: I'd like to have it.
Shop: We're a rental shop, we don't sell.
Katsura: Rental? I don't really get it, but I'll leave it to you.
Katsura: I can't catch up on the recent topics.
Shop: Are you a member?
Katsura: I am Katsura not Member.
Shop: You can't rent a video unless you become a member.
Shop: If you'd like you can make one. Do you have some identification?
Shop: Like a student card.
Shop: Oh hey brother, don't you have something like a drivers license?
Katsura: A drivers license?
P4
Gintoki: Excuse me
Gintoki: Looks like I'm here again.
Teacher: It's not "Looks like I'm here again."
Teacher: Sakata-san, how many times do you have to come here until you're satisfied?
Teacher: What is it? What did you do this time?
Gintoki: Sorry, it's just that, you know, there was this ninja, and, like, I kind of ran it down a little, and, like, they, uh, took away my license.
Teacher: How can you run down a ninja who can run faster then a car? It's the chances of a meteorite crashing onto Earth.
Gintoki: It's the tribute of your teaching.
Teacher: I didn't teach you, why are you casually trying to make it my fault?
P5
Teacher: Remember I told you, no "probably" driving. "It'll probably be alright", "No one will probably bolt out into the road"
Teacher: You won't be able to respond fast enough with that kind of attitude. I told you to go with "might" driving!
Teacher: "A ninja might suddenly appear", "That ninja might make a right turn"
Teacher: With that kind of attitude, you'll be able to respond fast, right?
Teacher: Ok, so get into the passenger seat. What you lack is attentiveness, not technique.
Teacher: Watch someone else drive from the side and improve your attentiveness.
Teacher: Alright, today will be a joint lesson.
Katsura: Hello, I'm space captain Katsuura.
Katsura: It's a pleasure.
<Chapter 125: Go with "might" driving>
P6
SFX: CRASH!
Teacher: Sakata-san, didn't I tell you to go with "might" driving?
Teacher: "The joint lessons partner might be a space captain", you've gotta go with that kind of attitude.
Gintoki: Oh, sorry, I was just a bit surprised.
Teacher: Katsuura-san, get on quickly.
Teacher: Remember to check your surroundings before you get on.
Katsura: Yes, sir. A ninja might be clinging underneath the car.
Gintoki: The car might suddenly accelerate when checking.
Katsura: ACK
Katsura: A ninja might be playing hide-and-seek behind the car.
P7
Gintoki: The car might begin to back up.
Katsura: OOF
Katsura: That's enough!! I'm serious about getting a license!!
Teacher: Katsuura-san is here to get a license because he wants to become a member of a video rental shop.
Gintoki: What part is serious about that!? I'm here to get back my license seriously, too! Under no circumstances do I want to deal with him! Do something, teacher!
Teacher: Two people who are on bad terms
Teacher: might have to ride together.
Teacher: Right?
Teacher: It's "might" driving, you two.
Teacher: Prepare for all kinds of circumstances and try your best to drive tactfully, safely, and smoothly.
Teacher: Yes, that's good Katsuura-san. That's nifty handle work, for a first timer.
Teacher: But you're putting on a little too much speed.
Teacher: Slow down when approaching a curb.
P8
Gintoki: You're too tense. Don't lean on the handle so much.
Gintoki: Your visual range is just going to get restricted. Lean back a bit.
Katsura: I might... be tense right now.
Gintoki: What kind of "might" driving is that!? And that's not a "might", you're completely tense!
Gintoki: HEY! It's dangerous, slow down!
Teacher: Sakata-san, step on the breaks. The instruction cars have breaks in the passenger seat too.
SFX: bump
!!
Katsura: There might be...
Katsura: a bomb somewhere set by a terrorist to explode if you go slower then 50 kilo!
Gintoki: What kind of elaborate "might" driving is that!? And you're the terrorist!
P9
Gintoki: Hey teacher!! What are we gonna do!? This is why I said no way!
Gintoki: He's absurdly serious, that's why these things happen!
?: An S-curve!!
?: He doesn't care!!
Katsura: On the S part of the S-curve
Katsura: there might be
Matsuko: It's become such a lonely table.
Matsuko: ...I would have liked to show Natsuko-san in her wedding dress to mother, too.
Father: No matter how much you cherish and raise them, they go to others. Absolutely heartless.
Matsura: Oh
Matsuko: Don't you have a daughter right here,
Matsuko: Father?
Father: ...Matsuko-san,
Father: It's not too late, why don't you look for someone?
Father: Even though you're my sons wife, now my son is dead and gone.
Father: You have no obligations to take care of a geezer like me, when we aren't connected by blood.
Father: You've got a good nature and look. There'll be a lot of good partners for you out there.
Father: There's no need to concern yourself with me. I can manage by myself.
Matsuko: ...No one would want an old lady like me.
Matsuko: Father, do you want to get rid of me that much?
P11
Father: Er... No, that's not it,
Matsuko: Fufu... If I get any offer, I'll leave this old house as soon as possible.
<Despite her wry comments, the woman wouldn't leave.>
<Everyday she would take care of me, chiding me.>
Man: Why don't you give it up already?
Father: ?
Man: Are you saying that you still have regrets over your dead husband?
Man: It's 7 years already, shouldn't you walk your own life now?
Man: You can take a new step forward with me already.
Matsuko: ...I am always walking my own life.
Matsuko: I'm not living in this house because of a stupid thing like regret.
Man: Then why, are you saying that there's... someone else?
P12
Matsuko: For me
Matsuko: There is father.
Matsuko: We aren't connected by blood
Matsuko: But he is my father...

<family of moles under the the ground of the S-curve>
Katsura: living there...
Gintoki: Of course not!!! And that was unnecessarily long!!
P13
Gintoki: It's not "might" driving or anything else anymore!! It's just some kind of delusion!!
Teacher: Good job on stopping it Sakata-san. Come to a halt before a crossing.
Gintoki: Why are you crying?
Teacher: Ok, open the window.
Gintoki: Er, there's no window anymore.
Teacher: It's "might" driving here too.
Teacher: "A train might come", "The crossing might come down". Please check yourself with your ears.
Teacher: Although since this is a lesson, no trains will come. There are no railroads either.
Teacher: Just follow the formalities right now.
!!
Katsura: No, wait!!
P14
Katsura: ...hear.
Katsura: I can hear.
Katsura: I can hear the sound of the train coming!!
Gintoki: No, we can't.
Katsura: No, I can!! And the sound of the crossing coming down!!
Katsura: I hear it clearly!!
Gintoki: Hey, this is bad, someone call the doctor!!
Katsura: No...

Katsura: You idiot!!
Katsura: What do you think you're doing!! You were about to die!!
Katsura: What's going to happen if you die!? Are you saying that's what Matsuko wishes for!?
Gintoki: ..............
Katsura: Matsuko will never be happy with me. (Katsura Falsetto)
Katsura: ...It's better off with me gone. (Katsura Falsetto)
Katsura: If I wasn't here, Matsuko would be free of the bond called me. (Katsura Falsetto)
P17
Katsura: That isn't true, father. (Katsura Falsetto B)
Katsura: You are Ma... (Katsura Falsetto)
Teacher: ...Sakata-san.
Gintoki: Yes?
Teacher: It might be good not to do might driving anymore.
Gintoki: That might be right.
P18
Katsura: -So, about the government's recent intents... we'll discuss later.
Katsura: The other day I happened to come across the chance to watch a TV drama called "Summer Sonata"...
?: Hey, did you see yesterday's "Jang Gamu's Embarassment"? (*Jang Gamu's Embarassment: Obvious reference of 'The Great Jang Geum', a korean drama aired in Japan that became extremely famous between the Japanese. In Japanese, the title was "Janga Geum no Chikai" (=translation "Jang Geum's Oath") and the above title in Japanese is "Jang Gamu no Chitai".)
Katsura: The Summer
?: Really is amusing.
Katsura: TV
?: The main character's just so heroic, makes you want to cry.
?: Lend me the video next time.
Katsura: The Summer
Katsura: te
Katsura: That's enough!!
Katsura: Listen to me dammit!! When I've finally managed to borrow the video, isn't that nonsense!?
P19 ?: Katsura-san, "NatsuSona" is already old. Right now "Jang Gamu's Embarassment" is popular.
Katsura: Jumping on any new things, I've had enough! I'll never watch a TV drama again!! I'm going home!
?: Katsura-san!! Wait, Katsura-san!!
Katsura: Excuse me
Katsura: Do you have "Jang Gamu's Nude"? (*In Japanese, "Jang Gamu's Nude" is said as "Jang Gamu no Ratai". This is a simple mistake of Zura, thinking "ratai" instead of "chitai" which is supposedly the real name of the drama in the Gintama world.)
Shop: It's embarassment. And yes, we do have it. Uuum do you have a members card?
Katsura: No
Shop: Then do you have something for identification...

(*Shindou: Child of God)
P9
Okuni: Sell all your Leivedoor stocks! / Poriemon will be arrested in a few days!
(*Leivedoor & Poriemon: Obvious reference of Livedoor and Horiemon. Livedoor co. ltd is a Tokyo-based internet service provider. Its founder, Takafumi Horie, known as "Horiemon" in Japan, caused a stir when he was arrested for accounting fraud in 2006.)
Person B: Thank you for your oracle Okuni-sama! / This is only a small amount but...
Person A: It's a tree that grows money. / There are many ways to use her. / My new master is also interested in her very much.
Zenzou: A kidnapping, huh? ...Boy have we ninjas fallen.
Person A: But it's only us who can do such a feat. / Isn't it exciting / to kidnap a person who has already predicted that she is going to be kidnapped?
P10
Person A: That's your advance. / I'll give you the rest after the job is done.
[God]
Zenzou: ...What? This... is Borraginol. / My payment is Borraginol. / Hey... and there's nothing in here. / And this is an injection type. I asked for the suppository type!
[None of the ninjas are any good.]
[After living in the free world and having stayed away from the doozy world of shinobi for a long time, I become keenly aware again of what a terrible world I'd been in.]
[it's similar to the feeling you get seeing the TV version Jaian after the movie version Jaian.]
[in the ninja world , we call this the 'Aw-shucks-Jaian's-back-to-his-usual-self-again-but-I'll-never-forget-you-that-time' phenomenon.]
(*Jaian: Refer to above note. Generally movies make out characters much more nicely then their TV version.)
Okuni: I thought you'd come.
P11
Zenzou: Interesting kid. / It seems like you really can see anything.
Okuni: I don't understand what's so interesting. / There is no pleasure in a life that you know what is coming.
Zenzou: Is the reason why you didn't run away, knowing I'd come / because you knew I wasn't planning anything?
Okuni: This weeks issue!
Zenzou: Sorry for the pizza the other day. / I'm a person who finishes jobs properly.
P12
Okuni: It's strange. / I, who hold the Tengantsuu which sees through anything / cannot predict what is going to happen in JUMP next.
Zenzou: Huh, really?
Okuni: Can't see / Is Maison de Penguin going to be dropped, or is it going to survive?
Zenzou: That!?
Okuni: It was very pleasurable. / Hey, will you bring it to me again? They don't let me out much, so I can't go buy it myself.
Zenzou: The next time I come is the when I come to kidnap you.
Okuni: ...Hmm I'd like some shoujo manga next / The nannies only let me read JUMP, saying that shoujo manga these days are too full of smut.
P13
Zenzou: You aren't running away?
Okuni: ...It's no use, running away. / I can see, even without the Tengantsuu / what lies ahead of me. / Wherever I go, I cannot escape. / I am already used to being taken advantage, and prediciting it. / Wherever I go, there is only the same future waiting for me. / If only / this eye didn't exist.
[God]
[i'm not any good at all.]
[it's not as if I don't feel sorry.]
[it's not as if I don't want to help.]
P14
[but my body moves faster then the brain.]
[When thoughts vanish and the body becomes one tool to only complete a job]
[When the body melts within the darkness]
[My body jubilates.]
[it looks like I'm a born cat.]
Ninjas: Wonderfully done. / Worked true to his name, that ex-ninja head. / He has nearly conquered the whole mansion by himself. / It looks like there is no room for us.
Person A: ...Wait.
P15
Zenzou: Hey.
Okuni: ...you've come. / Take me anywhere, I'm resolved.
Zenzou: ...There's something I want to ask you before that. / You're Tengantsuu? / There's this one little thing I'd like you to see with that.
Ninjas: There!! / Zenzou, she's...
P16
Ninjas: Wha... / This is!!!
Zenzou: If I betray them and sided you / how much chance of winning do I have?
Okuni: ...top. / Stop / You'll... / die
Zenzou: ...Sounds good. / Actually, this seems much more worth recking havoc for.
P17
Person A: Zenzou... looks like you haven't changed. / You sad man having ninja blood, who can only live in the jaws of death. / I know your nature / And that it is necessary to be careful of handling blades too sharp.
Zenzou: Sorry Saizou. / Cats are fickle creatures.
Person A: Zenzou / You're no cat / You're a cat monster!
P18
Okuni: Stupid! / I told you!
P19
Zenzou: S... Sorry.
Okuni: Stupid stupid! Don't speak anymore!
Zenzou: I'm really sorry. / You can't read it anymore like this. / The Shoujo Manga
[i say this numerous times, but ninjas are cats.]
[They nestle up to any master so long as they can come by food.]
[They act dirty without hesitation. There may be people who say they have no principles]
[but it's also true that they have a fixation others wouldn't understand.]
[And today again we cats]
[jump through the sky.]

Chapter 65 (V.9) 19 pages "Don't judge people by their looks"
p1
Matsudaira: There's only one reason I've called for y'all.
Matsudaira: He / has finally made a move.
Kondou: ...Totsan*. / Is that true? (*Totsan = What Kondou calls Matsudaira. Totsan is a slangish word for tosan, which means father. But I'm quite sure Matsudaira is not Kondou's father.)
Matsudaira: There's no mistake. I constantly have my spies around him. He'd noticed it, and had been in hiding. / But we older people have more advantage at the test of endurance. He seems to have finally ran out out of patience and made a move.
Matsudaira: I have no intention on falling behind the curve. / If the tops have a problem with it, I'm prepared to slit my stomach.
p2
Matsudaira: It's decisive war. / I'm going to crush Him and all of His attempts.
Kondou: ...I see, if Totsan is so sure / We'll entrust you with our lives.
Matsudaira: Hmph. / I'll be relying on you lot.
Kondou: ..... / Toshi... Sougo, I need to confirm something.
Hijikata: What is it?
Kondou: ...Who's 'He'?
Hijikata: You didn't know!?
p3
Shichibei: Hey, Kuriko!
Shichibei: Sorry I'm late. / Did you wait?
Kuriko: Of course not, I just arrived. / I haven't been waiting at all.
Shichibei: Oh, really? Great! You see, the trains...
Matsudaira: ...That bastard, who's he trying to mess with? / Kuriko'd been waiting for over an hour, that asshole...
p4
Matsudaira: What do you think you've done, you've wasted one hour of my darling daughter's life. I'll have you pay for it with the rest of your life. / Oi Toshi! Be my base.
Hijikata: Wait a sec!!
Hijikata: What the hell are you thinking!? Did 'He' refer to your daughter's boyfriend!?
Matsudaira: He's not her boyfriend! Daddy will never approve of such a frivolous guy!
Hijikata: Shut up! I will never approve of you as our police chief!
Okita: And I will never approve of Hijikata-san as our vice-captain!
Hijikata: You stay out of this!
Hijikata: You must be kidding, we'd actually bothered to have a day off for you / but you just want us to interfere with your daughter's date? I can't believe it. I'm out.
Matsudaira: Hold on, when have I ever asked you guys to bother my daughter's date?
Matsudaira: I just want you to assasinate that man.
Hijikata: I wouldn't do that more!
Matsudaira: Do you really think that that frivolous guy can make Kuriko happy? / You see, I would really like to accept the man my daughter picked. I'd thought it over a lot...
Matsudaira: And... I decided that the only way to go is assasination.
Hijikata: You've thought it over too much! What are you? A Mafia?
Matsudaira: The police are like the Mafia.
Hijikata: The police chief just said an outrageous statement.
Matsudaira: Besides, father's can become a Saint or Mafia for their daughters.
p5
Hijikata: Yo Kondou-san, say something to this parent fool.
Kondou: Who are you talking about?
Kondou: Call me Killer Gorilla 13*. (*Gorilla 13 = Obviously a parody of Golgo 13, the longest running Japanese adult manga.)
Hijikata: What the hell are you doing? ...What's 13?
Kondou: An ominous sign, I've been rejected by 13 women this year.
Kondou: Hey Totsan, let me help you. / I've known Kuriko since she was young, she's like a little sister to me. I can't give her to a guy like that.
Kondou: I hate wimps who dress up frivolously despite being a man. / I think simple, sturdy men like me match Kuriko best.
Matsudaira: No I don't want someone like you.
Kondou: I think openhearted men like me match Kuriko best.
Matsudaira: No I don't want someone like you.
Kondou: Let's go Totsan!!
Hijikata: Oi!
Hijikata: Uh oh, I wouldn't put it past them to really assasinate him. Sougo, we're going to go stop them.
Okita: Who are you talking about?
Okita: My name is Killer Sougo 13.
Hijikata: Ooooooiiii!
Sougo: I'll be joining them since it looks fun.
p6
Matsudaira: That bastard, picking this of all the things... / I can't aim properly because the horse it moving up and down, and I think I'm getting kind of sick.
Matsudaira: Anyway, when are we going to catch up to them? We aren't getting closer at all.
Hijikata: Of course we aren't getting closer! This is a merry-go-round!
Hijikata: We're going round along with the platform! We'll be going round forever and ever, idiots!
Matsudaira: Mary and pants? What's that? / I've never visited an amusement park so I don't know anything about it, although I have visited an adult's amusement park before.
Hijikata: Whatever, just don't rush into anything. We just have to break them apart, right? There must be other ways.
Matsudaira: What, you want to become a member? You want to join the Killer alliance?
Hijikata: I'm here to make sure you guys don't run mad!
p7
Hijikata: I have no intention on doubting that man's humanity from his looks like you people.
Matsudaira: Of course he's a bad guy, he's got holes all over the place! / Human being's are already covered with holes! I don't get why you need to add more holes to it!
Hijikata: I don't get what the hell you're saying, either.
Okita: Adolescent girls' like her easily fall for bad men. / And they grow up by getting a little burned.
Hijikata: Sougo how old are you?
Matsudaira: Oi I have a tough-looking face and I've never once gotten popular with women.
Hijikata: In your case, instead of getting burned you'd get 80% of your body burnt.
Hijikata: Well, good or bad, love and whatnot is just an illusion in the end.
Hijikata: Your daughter's just holding a fantasy of him, so we just have to wake her up from her fantasy.
Hijikata: Luckily, this amusement park is the perfect place to do it.
p8
Kuriko: Please, I'd like to see Shichibei-sama's groggy face.
Shichbei: Eh are you serious? Go ride by yourself, I'll be watching you.
Kuriko: I don't want to; ride with me!
Shichibei: Buuuuut...
Okita: Don't complain and ride, holstein boy.
Shichibei: !
Okita: Make a fuss, and you'll have another hole in your body.
Kuriko: ? Shichibei-sama
Shichibei: Er, um, actually, let's ride...
Kuriko: Seriously!?
Matsudaira: Hey, are you sure it's going to work?
Hijikata: Of course, Sougo is a sadist extreme who's hobby is to bully people.
Okita: ...your pants.
Shichibei: What?
p9
Okita: Poop in your pants. / If you don't until the rollercoaster comes back, I'm going to kill you.
Shichibei: Whaaaaaaaaaaaat!??
Kuriko: Shichibei-san!
Kuriko: Are you okay? You're pale... / If you don't want to ride that much, let's get off. Attendant!
Okita: If you get off you die.
Shichibei: Shut up! I'm going to ride!
Kuriko: Shichibe... !!
Riders: KYAAAAAAAAAAA!!
Matsudaira: Ach! Tougher than I'd thought... / Ouch! / How is it!?
p10
M & H: Whaaaaa?? / Bu!
Matsudaira: Ow!
Hijikata: What do you think you're doing!?
Okita: I forgot to buckle up! I forgot to buckle up!
Okita: Hawawawa!
Matsudaira: Oi, what's with him!? He's a completely different person from before, he's panicking!
Okita: Sadists are fragile then others! We are glass swords!
Okita: H-h-h-help! Hijikata-you-bastard!
Hijikata: ACH!
Hijikata: You idi- / GYAAAAAA!!
p11
Kuriko: Phew, that was a scary ride! / Are you okay, Shichibei-sa... !
Kuriko: Shichibei-sama. / You're sitting height... seems a bit taller.
Shichibei: He... hehe. / This isn't good, you're going to be disgusted...uh oh. / I think I wet my pants a bit...
Hijikata: [...I'm sorry, Shichibei... I have no grudge against you but...]
Kuriko: I'm so relieved! / To tell you the truth, I did too... / I was worried if I was the only one.
p12
Killers: [Whaaaat!?]
Shichibei: Seriously!? We've, like, matched! It's a miracle!
Kuriko: It seems like we have a connection.
Shichibei: What what, you mean like an intestine connection?
Kuriko: Oh, you~ Stop joking~
Matsudaira: Heeey! They're even more friendly now!
Hijikata: What's up with your daughter!? Wetting her pants? What kind of education did you give her!?
Matsudaira: Uh oh, they're going to the next ride! / In that state!?
Hijikata: Oi Kondou-san quick!
Hijikata (or Okita?): Kondou-san!
Hijikata: [Eh? His sitting height...]
Kondou: Toshi... / don't tell anyone.
Hijikata: [Whaaaat!?]
p13
Hijikata: Good god. / To think that she hadn't been digusted by it.
Matsudaira: My daughter has amazed even I.
Hijikata: No kidding.
Matsudaira: What are you trying to imply, is it about the poop? I'll kill you if you tell anyone.
Hijikata: Totsan, relax. Your daughter hasn't pooped in her pants. / Look, the bastard has changed his clothes, but your daughter hasn't.
Matsudaira: Maybe she's walking with it between her butt.
Hijikata: Of course not! Don't you think your daughter is cute!?
Hijikata: Your daughter said that as to not hurt the guy.
Matsudaira: What?
Kondou: Toshi, are you saying that she really wasn't disgusted at all by the poop? / You were totally disgusted at me when I wet my pants / whereas that girl consumes all of him, including his dirty parts. Is that what you're trying to say?
Okita: Kondou-san, I'm disgusted at you too.
Hijikata: From laughing it off when he was an hour late to rendezvous / she must be serious...
p14
Okita: Totsan! Look!
Okita: Uh oh, they're heading for the Ferris wheel! / There's not mistake, they're going to kiss!
Matsudaira: What!? Is that right!?
Okita: Where there are Ferris wheels' there are kisses, Ferris wheel's were made to kiss in.
Matsudaira: Seriously!? I didn't know! Kuriko-chan is in danger!
Kondou: We need to do something! Thinking is later! Let's go!
Matsudaira: Urgent, get it ready right now!
[ Hijikata-han, Hijikata-han ]
[ Hijikata-han is so handsome and cool ]
[ you must be very popular between women. ]
[ Not really. ]
[ Oh, you liar ~ ]
[ Hijikata-han, Hijikata-han ]
[ Eh? What's that you're eating? ]
p15
[ Hijikata special rice. Want some? ]
Hijikata: Ha.
Hijikata: ...I'd thought / that love was just an illusion.
Shichibei: But Kuriko, you really are something. / You'd usually dump them, if your boyfriend wets their pants. I really thought it was the end there.
Kuriko: I won't dump you for such a little thing, Shichibei-sama.
Kuriko: Besides, you didn't dump me when I wet my pants, too, did you?
